Bundu (also Bondu, Bondou and Boundou) was a state in West Africa, existing from the late 17th century until it became a French protectorate dependent on the colony of Senegal. Its territory was located between the Falémé River and the upper course of the Gambia River, between 13 and 15 degrees north latitude, and 12 and 13 degrees west longitude.
